Independent of any nl80211 status the private libertas ioctls have to go. Not only don't we want private ioctls for mesh networking but rather have it as driver-independent interface, but the actual libertas interface is the worst possible choice. It uses the absolutely broken iwpriv interface instead of plain ioctls, and has a cmpletely confusing forest of sub ioctls. I strongly recommend ripping out all the ioctls for 2.6.22 and waiting for a proper interface to appear. The olpc people can patch the ioctls back in for their use, but we should not put in interface like this into the upstream kernel. All NIC vendors get pushed back badly when they try to put in less crappy ioctls, there is no reason to make a exception for libtertas just because it's used by a project that some of the involved maintainers like a lot. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
